In the past we have thought about our apartment neighbors and how it would be nice for the to have a comfortable place for them to be and relax, read a book let their pet relax. It would be a great place to just meet new friends. That is why I want to be involved with this project!

🎬 MOVIE NIGHT WITH THE NEIGHBORS! 🍿
Curious about what’s happened to our sense of community and how we can bring it back?
Join us for a screening of “Join or Die,” a thought-provoking film about the decline of community connections and why rebuilding them matters.
❤️ Let The Yard ABQ take care of dinner and the kids while you enjoy the movie!
🌮 What’s on the menu?
A make-your-own Frito Pie bar
Popcorn, of course! 🍿
A chance to relax, watch a great film, and meet your neighbors
🎉 No charge to attend!
We simply want to bring people together, get to know our neighbors, and help build a stronger community.
Come as you are, bring the family, and let’s get to know each other!
Because everyone counts. Everyone matters. ❤️

Did you know we have a Labyrinth? The proportions of the labyrinth are designed to bring rest, order, comfort, and harmony to the mind. You are invited to come and walk it. We just installed some new lights!

Bernalillo County invites artists, artist teams, and community-based creative practitioners to submit qualifications for a community participatory art project that will help shape the North Valley Area Plan Update.

We’re seeking artists who believe that creative engagement can strengthen community voice, build connections, and make planning more inclusive and accessible.

The selected artist will collaborate with residents, businesses, community organizations, and the planning team to design and facilitate artistic activities during workshops and events throughout the planning process.

Why art in a planning process? Because creative participation reaches people that public meetings never do — and because the results are often surprising in the best way.

Apply by Sept. 9: opportunities.wearecreativewest.org/opportunity/18000/CAFE
